Mill Lane, Saxilby

AN EXCEPTIONAL COUNTRY RESIDENCE OF ALMOST 8,000 SQ FT INCLUDING GARAGING, SET WITHIN APPROXIMATELY 2.5 ACRES WITH SEVEN-BEDROOM MAIN HOUSE, EXTENSIVE ANNEXE/BUSINESS ACCOMMODATION, QUADRUPLE GARAGE, LEISURE FACILITIES AND SPECTACULAR OPEN COUNTRYSIDE VIEWS COMPLETE WITH NO ONWARD CHAIN

There are homes that impress through size, others through setting, and a select few that manage to offer both. Mill Farm is firmly within the latter.

Approached through private electronically operated gates with an intercom entry system, Mill Farm is an extraordinary individual residence occupying approximately 2.5 acres on the edge of Saxilby. Combining a substantial seven-bedroom main house with extensive ancillary accommodation, exceptional garaging, leisure facilities and beautifully established grounds, the property offers almost 8,000 sq ft of accommodation including the garage.Built in 2013, the main residence has been designed on a scale rarely encountered locally. Galleried landings, beautifully proportioned reception rooms, a superb open-plan kitchen and family space, multiple bedroom suites and panoramic countryside views combine to create a home capable of accommodating family life on a truly impressive scale. Beyond the house, however, is what makes Mill Farm particularly unusual. A substantial two-storey annexe provides enormous flexibility for multigenerational living, working from home or business use, while a quadruple garage, separate leisure building, summer house/former gym, covered entertaining space and approximately 50 solar panels further enhance an already remarkable proposition. All of this is positioned behind a private gated entrance, surrounded by established grounds and with spectacular views across the adjoining Lincolnshire countryside.

What Kinetic Estate Agents Love About This Property

George Hope – Marketing & Valuation Specialist "The sense of arrival at Mill Farm is exceptional. From the moment the gates open and you see the scale of the driveway, grounds and house beyond, you immediately realise this isn't an ordinary property. The aerial views really demonstrate just how much space and privacy is on offer."

Rob Webb – Sales & New Homes Director "What makes Mill Farm so unusual is the sheer flexibility. You have a substantial seven-bedroom family residence, but alongside it is an annexe, huge garaging, offices, leisure facilities and approximately 2.5 acres. It could suit a large family, multigenerational living or somebody who wants to combine an exceptional home with substantial working space."

Makayla Millar – New Homes Consultant "For me, it's the relationship between the house and its setting. The Juliet balconies, terraces and gardens all make the most of those far-reaching countryside views, yet you're still within easy reach of Saxilby and Lincoln. It's an incredibly difficult combination to replicate."

Step Inside

From the moment you enter Mill Farm, the scale and quality of the home become immediately apparent. A substantial entrance hall creates an impressive first impression, with tiled flooring and a striking glass-balustraded staircase rising through the house to generous galleried landings above. Despite its considerable proportions, there is a natural flow to the accommodation, with spaces designed for family life, entertaining and working from home.

The ground floor offers an excellent choice of reception rooms. To the front is a versatile reception room that would work beautifully as a snug, playroom, library or additional home office, while a separate dedicated study provides a quieter workspace overlooking the rear. The formal lounge is a particularly inviting room, centred around an impressive brick fireplace with inset log-burning stove. French doors connect the room with the gardens, making this a space that works equally well for relaxed family evenings or more formal entertaining. A guest cloakroom and second WC add further practicality to the ground floor.

The standout everyday living space is undoubtedly the exceptional open-plan kitchen, dining and family room. Extending to approximately ten metres in length, it provides a wonderful social centre to the house, with an extensive fitted kitchen arranged around a substantial central island and finished with solid quartz work surfaces. A comprehensive range of integrated appliances includes a full-height fridge and freezer, dishwasher, double oven, microwave, warming drawer and induction hob. Beyond the kitchen is ample room for a large dining table before the space flows naturally into the family area, where a second brick fireplace with inset log-burning stove creates a warm focal point. French doors open directly onto the rear terrace and gardens, making this a room that feels designed for everything from everyday family life to large-scale entertaining. A separate pantry, utility room with Belfast-style sink and dedicated plant/services room complete this highly practical part of the house.

The glass-balustraded staircase rises to an impressive galleried landing, spacious enough to accommodate an occasional seating or reading area. The principal bedroom is a superb private retreat, with generous proportions, his-and-hers fitted wardrobes and a Juliet balcony framing the far-reaching countryside views to the rear. Its luxurious four-piece en-suite is equally impressive, featuring a freestanding bath, walk-in shower, WC and wash hand basin, creating the feel of a private bathroom rather than a conventional en-suite. Three further substantial double bedrooms occupy this floor. Two benefit from their own private en-suites and fitted wardrobes, with one also enjoying a Juliet balcony and those beautiful open countryside views. The remaining bedroom is another excellent double with built-in wardrobes and an attractive outlook across the gardens and fields beyond. A high-quality family bathroom and separate laundry/linen room complete the first floor.

The sense of space continues onto the second floor, where another generous galleried landing leads to three further rooms. The largest bedroom is particularly impressive, approaching eight metres at its maximum length and offering more than enough space to create separate sleeping, dressing and seating areas. Its elevated position also provides far-reaching views, including towards Lincoln Cathedral. Two additional substantial double bedrooms complete this level, one of which is currently used as a hobby room and could easily continue as a studio, games room or creative space if seven bedrooms were not required. Useful eaves storage completes the main residence. Across its three floors, Mill Farm provides an exceptional combination of scale and flexibility, with seven substantial bedrooms, multiple reception spaces and a layout capable of adapting as a family's requirements change over time.

The Annexe & Business Accommodation

Separate from the main living accommodation, Mill Farm offers a substantial two-storey annexe and office suite that dramatically increases the property's versatility. The ground floor currently incorporates a large snooker and games room with its own kitchen facilities and direct access onto the patio. With its scale and existing facilities, there is clear potential for this to become an impressive open-plan kitchen and living area for independent accommodation, subject to any necessary consents. A separate shower room further supports its potential for multigenerational living or guest accommodation. Upstairs, the scale continues with an exceptional open-plan room extending to more than twelve metres in length and incorporating its own kitchenette. Two substantial additional offices provide further workspace, one fitted with extensive bespoke office furniture and the other opening through French doors onto a private balcony overlooking the gardens and surrounding countryside. Whether retained for business use, home working or adapted for independent family accommodation, this is a considerable asset and one of the features that truly separates Mill Farm from other substantial country homes.

Connected to the annexe is an exceptional quadruple garage with two electrically operated roller doors. At almost fourteen metres in length, it provides extensive secure space for vehicles, a collection, workshop equipment or general storage. Combined with the enormous gated gravelled driveway, which is understood to comfortably accommodate approximately 30 vehicles, Mill Farm offers parking and garaging on a scale rarely available with a residential property.

The additional buildings throughout the grounds allow Mill Farm to offer much more than simply extensive living accommodation. A dedicated private leisure suite houses a substantial sunken hot tub, creating a fantastic year-round space for relaxation and entertaining. A separate shower/changing room and adjoining plant room make the building completely self-contained from the main house. Elsewhere is a detached summer house with adjoining former gym, providing further space for fitness, hobbies or recreation. A separate covered seating and barbecue area creates another dedicated entertaining space within the grounds, ideal for summer gatherings away from the main residence. Together with dedicated log storage and approximately 46 owned solar panels, these additional facilities add another dimension to what is already an exceptionally versatile property.

Step Outside

The external setting is every bit as impressive as the accommodation. Mill Farm sits discreetly back from Mill Lane and is approached through an electronically operated gated entrance with intercom access. Once the gates open, the scale of the property becomes immediately apparent. An enormous sweeping gravelled driveway extends towards the residence and garage, providing parking for a very substantial number of vehicles – understood to be approximately 30 – while simultaneously creating a dramatic approach to the house. The grounds extend to approximately 2.5 acres and have been established to create a succession of distinct garden areas.

Mature trees, extensive lawns, hedging and orchard-style planting give the plot a wonderfully established character, while magnificent mature weeping willows provide a particularly striking frame to the main residence and driveway. Immediately in front of the house is an attractive landscaped pond, forming a beautiful focal point against the traditional brick elevations of the property.To the rear, extensive paved terraces create superb spaces for outdoor dining, entertaining and relaxation. A further raised pond forms another attractive feature within the gardens, while the numerous ancillary buildings have been carefully positioned throughout the grounds. One of the property's greatest attributes is its outlook. The aerial views reveal Mill Farm positioned immediately against vast expanses of surrounding open countryside. From numerous parts of the house and gardens, the eye is drawn across agricultural land towards a distant horizon, creating a remarkable sense of space and openness. The established planting and mature boundaries provide privacy closer to the house, while the open rural backdrop prevents the grounds from ever feeling enclosed. It is an exceptional setting for a property of this scale.

Life in Saxilby

Mill Farm offers an unusual opportunity to enjoy the scale and outlook associated with country living without becoming isolated from everyday amenities. Saxilby is a well-established Lincolnshire village positioned to the west of Lincoln and provides a useful range of day-to-day facilities, schooling and transport connections. For commuters, professionals and families, the property's position provides convenient access towards Lincoln whilst allowing owners to return home to an environment that feels distinctly more rural. The surrounding countryside also provides the backdrop that makes Mill Farm so special, with far-reaching agricultural views visible from the house, upper floors, balconies and gardens.
